Terrazzo
Terrazzo surfaces and terraced landscapes in architecture and interior design.
Terrazzo is a composite material made from marble, granite, or glass chips set in concrete or resin, prized for its durability and aesthetic versatility. Designers use it across flooring, countertops, and architectural features to create distinctive visual patterns and finishes.
The community explores terrazzo applications in hospitality and public spaces, from cafe interiors to elevated plazas and pavilions, alongside terraced landscape interventions that reshape topography and create layered outdoor environments.
